  • Goths, Spooky Kids, and the American School Shooting Panic Allen Berres
    "EVERYBODY IS THEIR ENEMY": GOTHS, SPOOKY KIDS, AND THE AMERICAN SCHOOL SHOOTING PANIC ALLEN BERRES One of the earliest details to leak out about Eric Harris and Dylan Klebold following their horrifying shooting spree at Columbine High School was that they were supposedly members of a clique that called itself "The Trench Coat Mafia." This name was readily snapped up by the journalists covering the story, and by the evening following the shootings, numerous news organizations were running pieces about this group in an attempt to shed greater light on the reasons why Harris and Klebold killed thirteen people and themselves. Although the Trench Coat Mafia clique was confined to Columbine High School, journalists quickly pointed out many supposed links between this clique and two larger music fan cultures whose members occasionally wear black trench coats that are found in almost every American high school: goths and Marilyn Manson fans. A wave of anti-goth, anti-Marilyn Manson sentiment immediately followed this over-hasty association, motivated by the overwhelming fear that any member of these black-clad legions could turn out to be the next school shooter. The label "goth" (an abbreviation of "gothic") was adopted by a culture of music fans that started in the late 70s and early 80s as an offshoot of punk. Goths are fans of a variety of generally gloomy bands, including the Sisters of Mercy, Bauhaus, Siouxsie and the Banshees, and the Cure. They are also known for favoring black clothing, ranging from lacy gowns to biker jackets to band t-shirts. One of the bands that is occasionally included in the list of goth musical acts is a band named Marilyn Manson.

  • TR-128 Wanton Violence at Columbine High School
    U.S. Fire Administration/Technical Report Series Wanton Violence at Columbine High School Littleton, Colorado USFA-TR-128/April 1999 Homeland Security U.S. Fire Administration Fire Investigations Program he U.S. Fire Administration develops reports on selected major fires throughout the country. The fires usually involve multiple deaths or a large loss of property. But the primary criterion T for deciding to do a report is whether it will result in significant “lessons learned.” In some cases these lessons bring to light new knowledge about fire--the effect of building construction or contents, human behavior in fire, etc. In other cases, the lessons are not new but are serious enough to highlight once again, with yet another fire tragedy report. The reports are sent to fire magazines and are distributed at National and Regional fire meetings. The International Association of Fire Chiefs assists USFA in disseminating the findings throughout the fire service. On a continuing basis the reports are available on request from USFA; announcements of their availability are published widely in fire journals and newsletters. This body of work provides detailed information on the nature of the fire problem for policymakers who must decide on allocations of resources between fire and other pressing problems, and within the fire service to improve codes and code enforcement, training, public fire education, building technology, and other related areas. The Fire Administration, which has no regulatory authority, sends an experienced fire investigator into a community after a major incident only after having conferred with the local fire authorities to insure that USFA’s assistance and presence would be supportive and would in no way interfere with any review of the incident they are themselves conducting.

  • The Report of Governor Bill Owens'
    The Report of Governor Bill Owens’ COLUMBINE REVIEW COMMISSION Hon. William H. Erickson, Chairman MAY 2001 STATE OF COLORADO Bill Owens May 2001 Governor Dear Fellow Coloradan, On April 20, 1999, two students at Columbine High School southwest of Denver murdered 12 fellow students and one teacher in the worst school shooting in U.S. history. The Columbine tragedy forever changed the way Americans think about the potential for violence in our schools. No one can erase the horror of that day, or restore the losses suffered by the victims and their families. Yet only by learning from Columbine can we hope to prevent similar tragedies in the future. On January 28, 2000, I signed an executive order creating the Columbine Review Commission, to conduct an inde- pendent review of the tragedy that occurred on April 20, 1999. I appointed the distinguished William H. Erickson, former Chief Justice of the Colorado Supreme Court, to chair the commission. The commission’s volunteer members spent over a year conducting public hearings and examining thousands of pages of documents before compiling their findings and recommendations. The full report follows. The report is also posted on the state’s website at: http://www.state.co.us. To the members of the commission I extend a heartfelt thanks for the many hours devoted to this difficult task. They have provided a great public service, and we are deeply grateful. Sincerely, Bill Owens Governor of Colorado T HE G OVERNOR’ S C OLUMBINE R EVIEW C OMMISSION Commission members pictured here are: 3rd row: Stephen D.

  • How the Shootings of Cassie Bernall and Valeen Schnurr Fueled One of Columbine’S Biggest Myths
    How The Shootings Of Cassie Bernall And Valeen Schnurr Fueled One Of Columbine’s Biggest Myths Marco Margaritoff All That Is Interesting March 5, 2019 Cassie Bernall was supposedly killed at Columbine for refusing to renounce God, but she had actually been mistaken for fellow student Valeen Schnurr. Wikimedia Cassie Bernall The Columbine High School massacre of 1999 sent shockwaves across America and forced an entire nation to try to wrestle with unanswerable questions. How could two teenage boys commit such horrific acts of violence? Where did we go wrong? Is the world a chaotic pit with no fundamental meaning, or God-given direction? The grieving country desperately tried to find answers, and for a while, found one in Cassie Bernall. Cassie Bernall was 17 when Eric Harris and Dylan Klebold gunned her down during the massacre at Columbine High. As the studious daughter of a religious mother, Misty Bernall, the young woman became a sort of martyr when a student witness named Emily Wyant claimed that Bernall had refused to reject God during the shootings, causing Klebold to kill her. So there it was: These troubled boys could at least be filed as “anti-religion” and we could all feel like we understood them to some degree. In reality, however, Cassie Bernall was killed without any such prologue — which Wyant only finally revealed more than 10 years later. In the meantime, the myth gained so much traction that outlets like Salon and Rocky Mountain News as well as Misty Bernall’s book, She Said Yes: The Unlikely Martyrdom of Cassie Bernall captivated a nation.

    10/12/2017 Columbine High School shootings - Facts & Summary - HISTORY.com COLUMBINE HIGH SCHOOL SHOOTINGS On April 20, 1999, two teens went on a shooting spree at Columbine High School in Littleton, Colorado, killing 13 people and wounding more than 20 others before turning their guns on themselves and committing suicide. The crime was the worst high school shooting in U.S. history and prompted a national debate on gun control and school safety, as well as a major investigation to determine what motivated the gunmen, Eric Harris, 18, and Dylan Klebold, 17. There was speculation that the two committed the killings because they had been bullied, were members of a group of social outcasts that was fascinated by Goth culture, or had been inuenced by violent video games and music; however none of these theories was ever proven. CONTENTS Columbine Shootings: April 20, 1999 Columbine Shootings: The Investigation Columbine Shootings: The Aftermath COLUMBINE SHOOTINGS: APRIL 20, 1999 At approximately 11:19 a.m., Eric Harris and Dylan Klebold, dressed in trench coats, began shooting fellow students outside Columbine High School, located in a suburb south of Denver.
